More coherent and thought-provoking than most 'found-footage' horror movies, this should appeal to genre fans and eco-activists alike.

Although there are some scary moments here, and a lot of gruesome ones, this isn't a horror film so much as a faux eco-documentary.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Rotten
[Levinson] demonstrates he can make a shakycam found-footage horror movie every bit as fake-looking, clumsy and unscary as your average college student working on a $200 budget.
Lou Lumenick, New York Post
Fresh
A ripped-from-the-headlines psychological chiller that burrows under the skin with its terrifyingly local twist.
Sean O'Connell, Washington Post
Fresh
Like a "Blair Witch Project" for thinking adults, one that's scary in two distinct ways.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
